Re: Creative-Engineering-Ordering
I shipped stuff via suitcase and some via airfreight but don't do that as the cost was more than the parts 
If you are in the UK,why don't you collect in person....they life in Dorchester and you could combine with a weekend by the sea! I used to life in Bournemouth!

Re: Creative-Engineering-Ordering
OK, I understand....so are you in a rush? I want to ship some stuff here and a friend might be bringing a container of Harleys and I'm chatting re some space.....otherwise we could ship together and share cost?

Re: Creative-Engineering-Ordering
Excess Baggage where the cheapest.....I could find. I actually did airfreight in the end as didn't want to wait 8 weeks for ship but my floor panels (1.5m x 1m x .3m) was £330 air and I think ship was £180 ish
